Appraisal services for home sellers - Simz Appraisal Services

Putting a house on the market in or near Kenosha County? Contact Simz Appraisal Services and make sure you're setting the price right.

If you're planning on selling your home soon, an appraisal is a must. Don't think of a professional appraisal as costing money; it's worth the money in the long run! Unless the homeowner studies real estate values on a day to day basis, like an appraiser, it's difficult for them to understand the nuances of their local real estate market.

We are not talking about the costs of purchasing and upgrading your home, or the amount you'd like to get for it. Rather, an appraisal assesses the true market value of your home.

Need help setting a price when selling yourself?

An increasing amount of WI homeowners are making the decision to sell their homes FSBO (For Sale By Owner) and foregoing the assistance of a real estate agent. But if you're going to do it right, with minimal waiting and for the best price, what you need is a professional appraisal. The best thing to have is objective opinions, we're human too, we understand its difficult hard to be objective about your own home because of your emotional attachment to it. We will tell you what you need to know, not just what you want to hear.

Not only will getting a professional appraisal help you set a realistic asking price to attract more potential buyers, a professional appraisal can:

Be a very useful bargaining tool while speaking with a potential buyer
Impress buyers with written proof of the interior and exterior condition of your home
Alert you of problems and get rid of any last-minute repair hassles that might hold-up a closing
Help decrease the odds of unidentified problems that cause sales to go up in smoke

It can be surprising to people when they find out that the value of their home is much more than they thought. So spending a little on an appraisal provided the data to support a sale for several thousand more than they originally thought. Others have an an overestimated assessment when they put a value on their home, by getting an appraisal it gave then the assistance they needed in order to realistically price their home allowing them to quickly sell it instead of waiting on the market for months. Selling too high will not attract buyers, which means no offers and no closing, which can waste your valuable time and drain your resources while getting nothing done
